Process question: Does the president write a budget, and present it to congress/senate for approval/changes (and then sign the modified budget), or does the budget originate in congress/senate ? The way it usually works is that the White House submits a recommended budget to Congress. However, Congress is under no obligation to pay any attention at all to it. This budget request is usually submitted the first week in February but is frequently late, particularly in a President's first year when there is a change in party in the White House. Then the House and Senate Budget Committees put together their own budget resolutions using the President's budget request and budgetary reports from the Congressional Budget Office. These are supposed to be passed by each house of Congress by April 15. However, there is no legal obligation for either the Senate or the House to pass a budget resolution (and the Senate frequently doesn't in recent history). If they do not, you potentially get a 'continuing resolution'. If both houses pass a budget resolution, it will then go to reconciliation to get the final budget that is sent to the President for signature. Trump can brag all he wants, but if it is congress and/or senate who actually write the budget and Trump only gets to sign it, I really doubt that Trump would veto budget that doesn't include a NASA perk that Trump would like. The budget is usually sent to the President in pieces, so he would have the opportunity to sign some pieces and veto others. NASA has not figured prominently in his campaign. And people in Trump's mental condition have a narrow set of topics they focus on. You were doing fine right up to here. Just what is Trump's "mental condition" and which medical report did you get it from? You've now wandered off behind the little animals into nutter land. So it is quite doubtful he will push for NASA. True. He'll push for protection againsts imaginary enemies (all muslims, mexicans, people of colour), And you're back to being a nutter. tax cuts True. and reguylatory freedom for his golf course customers (bankers), and perks for building contractors (build some wall) who will then likekly give Trump Corp better deals when Trump Corp wants to build something. And you're back to being a nutter. -- "Ordinarily he is insane. But he has lucid moments when he is only stupid." -- Heinrich Heine |

It quite simply does not belong here. Please stop posting off topic. sorry your wrong. wasting over 20 billion on a wall that wouldnt be effective. LOL, I don't think so Bob. Wasting $20 billion (a tiny fraction of the federal budget) on something that's non-space doesn't impact space. Also, canceling a $20 billion non-space project doesn't mean all of that money will all be spent on space instead. In fact, it doesn't even mean that $20 billion would be spent at all!

Your interpretation of me saying it should have been two, not three, is why people don't take anything you say seriously.
